Good afternoon...

The clocks went forward this morning... so the nights should get lighter now...

A long walk today......20 miles...

I am exhausted.......

We set off from Lee on the solent towards Fareham...then through Porchester towards portsmouth..... Crossed on the ferry and then on the home straight through Gosport towards Lee on the solent...

The food we talked about was crazy..... I had a craving for KFC the whole walk.....LOL...

We did stop off and grabbed a mars bar and it was much needed and gave us a boost for the last stretch ....

My feet are aching and so are my legs.....

Time to rest....

till next time

Good Evening...

Another 5 miles today......

5 miles feels relatively easy now.... no aches or pains and time seems to fly by, and still keeping to our 1 hour and 10 mins.

Weather was quite blustery along the sea front today....

I wore my new training 3/4 length trousers today they are so comfy ( Nike ) and feels like a second skin...

until next time

Another gorgeous day here in the south....

I have new trainers.... a pair of Brooks...

Me and my training partner walked 5 miles today... in 1 hour 10 Min's.... so good timing.

It was beautiful along the sea front and a nice cool breeze.....Trainers felt good and no niggles.

I've just purchased my U2 Tickets for August 14Th 2009.... soooooooo excited.....

Well What a lovely morning, the sun is shining and the sky is blue. ( The picture is taken from outside the conservatory at my home )

A 13 mile walk today with my training partner (Sue) in 3 hours 20 Min's, a bit longer than we thought time wise but it was a lot warmer and we had to stop for an ice lolly on the way as we were quite dehydrated. But still all good. We walked on a back road which was quite scary at one point as a car nearly took us out.

I've ordered my new socks today from the Internet ( 1000 mile socks ) I've never had them before but many people talk about them so I'll see how I get on with them.

It's 2 months tommorrow and time seems to be creeping up on us.

Well goodnight.

Good Evening,

Well I have finished my course what I've been on through work today and passed and I am now a tutor so the pressure is off, however need to raise my game on the training front.

I ordered a new pink camera today so I can start practising for the night, I want to take lot's of photo's this time of my experience and it's pink.... ( Bonus ) ..

Well after work I went on a 5 mile walk with Sue my training partner...all along the sea front, round in a loop and back.Timing was good coming in at 1 hour 10 mins....I even took my jacket off and walked in a t-shirt so tempretures are on the up.... my hands were quite puffy though....

I had a call from my husband which was lovely and I've had a bath. so I'm now going to sit and have a nice healthy tea. Back on shift tommorrow, and I'm planning to walk as much as possible over the next few weeks.

I'm also excited as U2 have released the tour dates so can't wait to find out when they go on sale.....

Right that's it for me tonight.

I'm going to go and study my training schedule....

I have done a couple of walks recently and not updated my blog...... only short ones though ( 3 milers )

But today we did a long walk, the weather didn't look to promising as it was raining earlier and it was very windy.

Anyway we think we walked about 8 1/2 miles. I do feel good.

I'm still finding it hard to fit everything in work, life and training...... and feel guilty that I am not training as hard as I did when I did the half moon walk 3 years ago.. But I did have a cold last week and that set me back a bit. ( Those excuses again )

Sponsorship is coming on, I've posted forms to everyone.

Well till next time.
